Question for trappers

Trying to find the nearest place to Zelienople to sell some coon/coyote skins.  Any help would be appreciated.  I herd the prices were up pretty good for these days.  Rumor or is it true.  Thanks in advance.

    I don't have enough to ship them, but I travel enough that close would be somewhere between Pittsburgh and Erie and Clarion.

    Sarges, Is in Albion He has ben doing hides for better part of fifty years, He started as a skinner for  North west fur, when they closed he started his own shop.  Take 79 north to the edindoro exit head west . stop light in Albion, sign to prison take a left head south you will see a small sign on the right Sarge's fur trade, you will like this man's prices and his stories of old. Has the best prices in the state on trapping and fur supply's

     All the fur prices are up with the exception of rats, muskrats are down to $3.50 coon are up to $18- $20 for any thing over (24") beaver $30 Fox $35 and up. Yotes the same.
    Sarge is not taking any new coon but if you have some taken from earlier in the season he'll take them. coon's are starting to spring up.

    I think I need to go to this guy.
     
    I'm guessing the fox prices are for reds not grays. Even the auctions houses in Canada aren't getting that much for PA red fox.
